Concerns and questions were asked by the public regarding the possible con tract. Rains disclosed that if the contract is accepted by the board, the City of Gal latin would have police coverage by two deputy of ficers, except for city ordi nance violations and dog related calls. If the board pursues the contract, a code violation official would need to be hired to continue to address mowing issues, abandoned cars, etc. within the city limits.

By: Manoj Chhetri, Field Specialist in Horticul ture Moles are small mammals that live underground in wood lands, grasslands, and lawns. In Missouri, only one species, the eastern mole (Scalopus aquaticus), is found. The large paddle-like forefeet and prom inent toenails are the moles most distinguishing features, differentiating it from similarlooking mammals like shrews and meadow mice. They ac tively feed on insects, snails, spiders, and small verte brates--day and night at all times of the year. Earthworms and larva of Japanese beetles (white grubs) are their favorite foods. Moles in the natural en vironment cause minor dam age as they maintain balance in the food chain. They are valuable to soil health and the environment because their tunneling activity permits air and moisture to penetrate deeper soil layers. Further, about 85 percent of its diet consists of animal foods, in cluding crop pests such as cutworms and Japanese bee tleMoleslarvae.remain unnoticed until their tunneling activity be comes apparent. Moles leave unique ridges and mounds, which can be helpful to distin guish them from other mam mals’ activities. Moles push soil to the surface to create conical-shaped mounds (like a volcano). The mounds from moles are usually not numer ous. People often confuse pocket gopher mounds with mole mounds. The pocket gopher is a rodent with differ ent feeding habits from a mole. The pocket gophers do not construct raised ridges or surface tunnels. Their mound is crescent-shaped and nu merous. It is crucial to cor rectly identify the mammals because the traps designed to catch moles will not usually catch pocket gophers or viceversa. Moles dig two types of tunnels: temporary feeding tunnels just below the ground surface and deeper, per manent tunnels below the frost line. The temporary feeding tunnels can cause unsightly damage to lawns, golf courses, cemeteries, and pas tures.Many consider moles a nui sance, mainly when they are abundant and upheaved ridges of dirt surface on the yard. Homeowners have used many remedies – chewing gum, noisemakers, broken glass, bleaches, and wind mills– but none have provided consistent control. There is lit tle information to substantiate the effectiveness of repellents derived from castor oil. Using insecticides to eliminate insect larvae and other mole foods results in an un healthy ecosystem and are thus not theserunsCheckhelppokebroomsticknelscausearetheymaynelsmaster.tivesor-jawed.threemethodtrapsDreadfulrecommended.asitmaysound,arethebestcontrolformoles.Therearetypesoftraps:harpoon,choker,andscisEachcanbeeffecbutmaytakesometimetoIdentifyingactivetuniscriticalassometunnelsbeabandonedsoonafterwerebuilt,whileothersusedforaperiod.Bemolesusesometunmorethanothers,usingaorsimilaritemtoholesinseveralrunscanidentifytheactiveroute.adaylatertoseewhichhavebeenrepaired;aretheactiveruns.
Place a trap in a busy run by excavating soil, placing the trap, and then replacing loose soil. Move the traps if no moles are caught within three days. Alternatively, poi son baits containing Zinc phosphide can be effective when correctly placed on the active tunnel. Look for baits derived from insects, as moles do not prefer grain baits. Moles are a perennial prob lem; controlling moles requires patience and a few trials. Con tinue to trap and bait until ac tivity ceases. More importantly, mastering identify ing active routes is critical.

Over the next two months, you will hear a lot of noise about abortion rights and free stuff. This will all be an attempt to gin up support for a leftist agenda and divert your attention from the pitiful economy, inflation that is skyrocketing food and gas prices and socialist policies that could wreckour republic if not curtailed over the next decade.

I accumulated about $18,000 in student debt during my five years at Henderson State Univer sity.HSU was an affordable, quality education in the 90’s and with scholarships, a work study job and a part-time job I kept my debt to a minimum.
There is nothing we can do about the bill Biden signed for now but we must remember when at the ballot box in November 2022 and November 2024.

Up is down, there are 67 genders and now, appar ently, you don’t have to pay debt you promised to re paysimply because it “isn’t fair”.Well, I should have said SOME people don’t have to pay it back.
Did you see the story re cently where Geico Insur ance Company was ordered to pay a Missouri woman $5.2 million because she contracted a sexually trans mitted disease while having sex in her male partner’s car, which was insured by Geico? The Jackson County woman in 2021 said her partner neglected to take the proper pre cautions to keep her from contracting the STD and that he neglected to tell her that he had theShedisease.wrote to the company directly and said that his insurance coverage provided money for her injuries and losses. She offered to set tle for a million dollars. Geico, understandably, denied coverage and refused her settlement offer. The case was then sent to an arbitrator who ruled that $5.2 million was a fair amount for her injuries. A three-judge panel reviewed the case and said the insurance company should have de fended itself sooner in the process instead of just dismissing her claim and affirmed the more than $5 million settlement. What in the world is going on? How unrea sonable have people become? The saddest part of this case is that many people will think this is a great idea and a wonderful settlement for a victimized woman. What it is, really, is an expensive lesson for everyone involved.

As we struggle to get supply chains straight ened out and get the flow of goods returning to normal, another disruption is about to throw a wrench into those plans.
NOPE. They got a handshake from a military of ficer who thanked them on behalf of a grateful nation for their loved one’s sacrifice, 21 shots were fired and that was that. As Colonel Potter on M*A*S*H would have said, “Horse hockey!”

I paid my debt off monthly and in about six years I was paid in full. Am I getting any of my money back? Heck no and I don’t think I should. I signed the contract, I re cieved an education and I honor my debts but that is not the world we live in today. In the looney left’s version of America, they can not define what a woman is, which bathroom you use or understand that nothing is free.
The larger than life Rush Limbaugh often said that when dealing with democrats, it is hard to compete with Santa Claus. They are constantly handing out “freebies” and gifts to demographics that they think are most likely to vote democrat. This is yet another example. There is no rhyme or reason, it is just a bribe be fore an election with very little reason other than, their voters expect it.

Allowing democrats to maintain a majority the next two years and retain the presidency in 2024 will almost assure that we will not be able to reverse the damage that has already occurred under Clinton, Obama and now Biden. This money grab is just another tax on you and me and adding insult to injury, those getting the handout are not happy at all. Can you believe that? After the debt forgiveness was announced, thousands of little ingrates went to social media to whine about how it was not enough and that ALL their debt, 10’s of trillions of dollars should have been forgiven.
I am sick and tired of the madness! This is lunacy we are witnessing and it has to stop! Nothing is free, debt is never erased, it is shifted from one person to the next. Little Moonbeam Windowlicker graduates from some liberal bastion with a fabulous degree in Sand scrit and Gender Studies. After looking around, she can only score a part-time gig as a receptionist at a Oxygen bar in Escondido. Now Moonbeam is angry that her dream aren’t be coming reality and she decides it is someone else’s fault and she needs a do-over. Here come Biden’s handlers, Schumer and Pelosi and the Squad and they just forgive it. Now, we all know the debt doesn’t go away, it just adds to the debt, or taxes on those of us paying the bills goes up. The middle class usually gets the shaft when freebies and handouts make life easier on the few that the democrats favor. Those of us who have paid in handsomely to medi care and social security are luck to get a fraction of what we paid in, doled back out in the few years we might have between 65 and our eternal reward.

Even worse, when the coffers are low because of these handouts, itseems like cost of living increases on social security are further and further in between. We treat seniors like paupers begging for “more” by sprinkling a 2 % increase out every few years like they should be lucky to get their money back. I repeat, their money!

I paid my debt off around 2001 and was relieved not to be sending that check any longer. I had a lot of friends in the same boat. I also had friends that went in the military to get their education paid for an not amass a mountain of debt.Why should they show fiscal responsibility, follow the rules only to have debtors today get a break simply because they owe it today versus 20 years ago?There are a lot of soldiers resting at Arlinton and across this country that not only fought for our free dom but never got to cash in on that GI Bill and get theirDideducation.theirparents or spouses get that refund?
I’ve read recently about a new California law called AB5 which will force employers to re classify many contractors as employees. Some 70,000 truckers that are owner/oper ators could be forced to stop work unless they get hired by a trucking firm or open their own company.Thatwill really make it difficult for goods to make their way to the midwest and other parts of the country from the ports in California.

The North Central Missouri Col lege Criminal Justice Department, along with the Trenton Police De partment and the Missouri State Highway Patrol, conducted Dis tracted Driving Simulations at the college on Wednesday, August 24. The simulation was a part of the Organization Fair on the NCMC campus and let students know the ef fects of driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs. The students are able to drive an oversized tri cycle, while wearing goggles, around an obstacle course of orange cones. The goggles are a simulation of what it is like to drive impaired including the vision issues that arise when driving under the influence of alco hol and drugs. The department also conducts an exercise to show what it is like when a person is texting and driving. There is a simulator brought in that in cludes a steering wheel and pedals, which allows the student to sit down and drive. Once they are driving, they are allowed to pick up their cell phones to see how distracted they will become once trying to text and drive.The Missouri State Highway Pa trol also conducts a rollover accident simulator that allows students to see the effects of seat belts in accidents. They will put a dummy in the vehicle without a seat belt on, roll the vehicle and let students see what happens when you don’t wear a seat belt while in a vehicle. They will then put the seatbelt on the dummy and roll the vehicle to show what happens in an accident if you are wearing a seat belt.Awareness is critical when driving as a person never knows when a car may have to stop quickly in front of you or a child runs out into the street. These driving simulations are con ducted in hopes that it will allow stu dents to realize that anything can happen when driving and it is very important to give driving all your at tention.

Brought to you by Weekly Feature on Individuals or Organizations in our AreaThe Republican-TimesTrenton Grundy County Breast Cancer Support Group
by Kristi Harris R-T Correspondent The Grundy County Breast Cancer Support Group gives support and resources to women and men diagnosed with breast cancer in Grundy County. The group provides bras, prostheses, wigs, breast cancer books, gift cards for gas, meals associated with doctor appointments, and emotional support. The group is organized by Cindy Jennings, Lynda Lynch, and other vol unteers. Cindy Jennings, Chairman, said, “My fa vorite thing about our group is being able to walk beside someone with breast cancer and, hope fully, show them how to be a survivor and encourage them to get involved in helping others.” Since starting the group in 2018, The group has helped close to fifty women and men in the county. Cindy said, “We would like to keep raising awareness about our group so that no one feels they are going through breast cancer alone or has no one to help them emotionally or finan cially.”The group also helps spread awareness in the community through in volvement in parades, fundraisers, and heading up Pink Out sporting events at Trenton R-9, NCMC, Galt, Laredo, and Pleasant View R-6 schools. Cindy said, “The schools have been so supportive by hosting our Pink Out events. The NCMC Nurs ing program also helps us spread awareness.” The support group also has a “store” at the Women’s Health Clinic for their bras, wigs, prostheses, etc., all free of charge to Grundy County residents. The local Scrappy Quilters Group also sews pillows, seat belt covers, and anything the group needs to be made. Before forming the group, there was very little support for women and men in the county dia gnosed with breast cancer. Cindy said, “I believe every woman or man we have helped would agree with this.” The group would like to see the Grundy County Breast Cancer Support Group have a building in Trenton that would be visible to the community. Cindy went on to say, “I would like to think that breast cancer would stop, and we would n’t need our group, but breast cancer seems to be rampant in our county. Having a building comes with a cost…rent, utilities, etc. We are blessed to use the Women’s Health Clini cal room at no charge. Chris Small, Director, and Jenny Dean Batson, RN Nurse Practitioner, have been wonderful to work with and so supportive of our Ongroup!”Friday, October 7, the group will have an eat what you want, pay what you want fundraiser hosted by Hy-Vee from 11:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. at the HyVee parking lot under the pink breast cancer tent. The group invites everyone to attend to learn more about the group and provide their support. For more infor mation about the Grundy County Breast Cancer Sup port Group, or if you know someone recently dia gnosed with breast cancer, please contact Cindy Jen nings at 660-359-1923.

Dear Annie: I have been with my girlfriend for three years. She and her physi cally disabled son have lived with me for almost two years. I've been very un happy in this relationship for a while now. I don't think she treats me very well. She trashes my house and inter rupts me every time I speak. Her jealousy is over the top. She smokes in the house and drops ashes all over my bed. Another major issue is her drinking. She starts drinking hard alcohol in the middle of the afternoon. Any time we get together with my friends, she's slurring her words and talking nonsense. She even drives around with a drink in the car, sometimes when her son is with her. I don't want to sound su perficial, but all the soda, al cohol and daily fast food has changed her appearance and made me lose physical at traction to her. She doesn't make much money and doesn't have any where to go. I can't just put her and her son out on the street with nothing. I feel like I'm trapped. What can I do? -- Feeling Trapped Dear Feeling Trapped: The real person here who is trapped is your girlfriend. She is trapped in a life of self-sabotage and alcohol ism that will not lead to any thing good. You are right to be concerned about her son. The best thing you can do is to have an intervention with her and tell her in no uncer tain terms that she has to get help for her drinking. She is a grown adult, and if she re fuses help, then you have to ask her to leave your house- not just for your sake but for hers as well. Enabling all that self-destructive behav ior will only hurt her and her son in the long run. In regards to the son, if she is drinking and driving with him, that is criminal. You have to step in. Driving drunk with a child is very se rious, and she simply cannot do that. If he is old enough, talk with her son about cal ling 911 if his mother tries to drive him while under the influence. Dear Annie: My daughter was just married this past week. Her reception will be held next month, but I was not invited. I found out a couple of weeks ago that she blames me for a miscarriage she suffered eight years ago. I talked to her through my mom and asked why this was not brought up until now. She said, "It wasn't the right time." She is currently pregnant and due in De cember.DoIsend a gift, or do I ig nore it? Thoughts on further holidays? -- Sad and DumbfoundedDearSadand Dumb founded: The fact that your question to me is about whether you should send a gift shows that you are not seeing the bigger picture. Your daughter is clearly very upset with you, and sending a gift, or not, will hardly re pair the relationship. Ho wever, if you do send a gift, it might be a small olive branch to reach out and find out why she blames you for her miscarriage and why she is so upset with COPYRIGHTyou.2022CREATORS.COM

Incentives in the law could spur over $270 billion in new wind and solar investments over the next eight years, Rystad estimated. That includes $160 billion in new onshore wind developments and $110 billion in utility-scale soThlar.e incentives will expand existing tax credits for capital investments and production, and the law will give developers multiple incentive options to choose from Rystad said. The law also is designed to encourage domestic manufacturing “The Inflation Reduction Act is a game changer for the U.S. wind and solar industry ” said Marcelo Ortega renewables analyst at Rystad. “The tax credits in the bill will strengthen the economic feasibility of new project developments and boost the wind and solar markets’ growth trend this decade and beyond.” Growth in onshore wind capacity had been expected to slow towards 2030, but is now expected to regain momentum towards the end of the decade, Ortega said.

The Trenton student section was in full voice Friday night in Brookfield and they were rewarded with a solid victory on opening night.
Gallatin handles N. Platte Offense dominates first quarter to run away with win
TRENTON
Your Bulldogs met a fa miliar foe Friday night in Brookfield, one that they beat last year in the first round of the playoffs by a score of 28-6. In their first game of the 2022 season the result was almost identical. The dogs opened up stong on defense and after stopping Brookfield on their first possession began an offensive burst that consumed most of the first quarter. Sam Gibson, Coleman Griffin and Gabe Novak led the charge. As the second quarter started, Trenton led 22-0 and the defense locked in and only allowed one score the rest of the game. After the offensive ex plosion in the first quarter, the offense moved the ball well at times but failed to find the endzone again until the fourth quarter. Trenton’s defense held strong for the entire game, allowing only one score and making key plays whenever Brookfield was threatening.Inthesecond half, the Bulldog defense harassed Brookfield QB Colton Parn, sacking him numer ous times, causing at least one fumble and not allow ing the offense to settle into a Whilerhythm.the Bulldogs could have easily scored at least one additional time, the game was never in doubt and Coach Hix son managed the clock in the second half to keep Brookfield from having more scoring opportuni ties.This was a great open ing victory for a team that had no wins two years ago and ended the season strong winning in the playoffs against Brook field before being knocked off by power house Maryville. The team looks strong this year but will face an early season test against Lathrop in their home opener tomorrow night.
